Two great Fun-fold card swaps today

August 21, 2025

Today I’m sharing two more of my Flowerbug Team swaps and both are fun fold layouts. Our theme was Monochromatic cards and these cards include similar colors.

First is Kim’s card featuring the Peace on Earth bundle that’s coming in the new 2025 Holiday catalog in September; just a few weeks away! The long leaves die-cut is from the Memorable Blooms dies but is now retired.

Her colors include Cloud Cover with Pretty Peacock & White. For the large oval die-cuts she used the Impressions Abloom dies seen here. The Damask Designs embossing folder was used on the Cloud Cover 2-toned card stock panel.

Measurements:

card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″
2-toned CS textured panel 2 1/2″ X 4″
Peacock inside 5 1/4″ X 4″

Here’s how her card opens: These doves in this upcoming bundle are so pretty. Perfect for sympathy, wedding or other events.

Next is a cute card made by Candy featuring the Jar of Joy stamp set seen here. It coordinates with the Sweet Jar punch seen here.

Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party & White. Embossing folders are So Swirly & Damask Designs. Dies are Nested Essentials and Textured Notes.

It’s a neat fun fold card that opens up from each side:

She’s calling it a ‘Buckle Fold card’. Here are her measurements:

Peacock card base 6 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 2 1/4″, latch strip is 5 1/4″ X 2″ score at 2 3/4″
Pool Party 2″ X 5 1/4″
Lost Lagoon die-cut 2 3/8″ X 3″
White inside 4″ X 5 1/4″, Textured Notes greeting die-cut

Tomorrow I’ll share the last of our Monochromatic swaps!

Team swaps with the Unbounded Love bundle & more

July 18, 2024

Here are a few more of our June Team card swaps. I shared quite a few last week as well. Our theme was to use a new color along with an old favorite.

Lori made this card with Summer Splash and Berry Burst with White.

Save

She added the Unbounded Beauty designer paper, the Deckled Rectangle dies and a Paper Butterfly Accent too. It's also a fun fold card!

It's a Dutch Door fun fold. Making a Dutch Door fold is so simple. To a full quarter card base you'll add a second layer that opens from the side. Her horizontal layer is 8 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4 1/4".

Save

I like that you cannot see the inside greeting layer until you open the card. The greetings are from the Unbounded Love bundle.

~~~

Next is a monochromatic card made by Rita. She also used the Unbounded Love bundle.

Save

Her colors include Peach Pie, Black and White. The DSP is the 2024-26 In Color 6 X 6" pack. She added embossed texture to the background. I especially like how she added that pretty leaf die-cut frame over her stamped greeting. A fabulous idea where you don't have to cut the greeting layer to match the die-cut exactly.

~~~

Lastly is a fun celebratory card made by Joan.

Save

She featured the 'Light the Sky' stamp set seen here online. I love her colors of Summer Splash with Real Red, Black & White.

Remember that for every $50 you spend in July you receive a $5 coupon to redeem in August on another order!

Bonus Days are a Win Win!!
